Zutara week day 2
He came to her in the dead of night confused and in need.
It was in her nature to help those who needed her
She was more than willing to help, because secretly she needed him too.
The night was filled with the sounds of their bodies crashing against each other like waves to a rocky shore.
Once this was over they would go back to their daunting lives, full of responsibilities and choices that they sometimes wished were never made. They knew it was coming but refused to acknowledge it.
Release was as bitter sweet as this ephemeral moment. Neither wanted to it to end, neither was ready to return then, "I love
You." She said it while clothes were being put on; his clothes were on first. She meant every syllable in that sentence and she couldn't help it as the words fell out of her mouth. He left her there half dressed in the bed. He didn't turn around, or even acknowledged that he heard her, he simply left. She wasn't surprised as the tears slowly slide down her face. She wasn't surprised witht the familiar sound of his steps down the hall fade. She wasn't surprised that even though she knew he always left at that same moment she still meant what she said.
